Service is frequently praised as excellent, and the menu highlights such as peanut chicken, General Tao, and orange beef are noted for quality and satisfying portions. Some reviews flag value concerns, pointing out that rice and vegetables are not included with main plates and must be paid for separately, which can push up the bill. A few dishes are criticized for lacking sauce or depth, including Cantonese style noodles with little sauce, and certain takeout items like crispy duck that seemed under spiced. Several diners praise the won ton soup as standout, while others recount gaps in menu knowledge by staff. The space is repeatedly described as quiet, attractive, and a hidden gem, ideal for couples or a relaxed dinner. The overall impression is of a reliable, pleasant restaurant where flavors stay solid and the atmosphere is a plus, even as some portions and extras raise concerns.View restaurant profile
